Description
This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to apply mathematical principles to analyse and interpret data relating to the properties and production process for food products, using common units of measurement, formulae and mathematical skills.The unit applies to individuals who provide and communicate solutions to a range of predictable and sometimes unpredictable problems. They take responsibility for their own work and for the quality of others’ work within known parameters.No occupational licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Notes
Elements and Performance Criteria
1. Use common units of measurement and dimensions in calculations for physical properties of materials and food
  • 1.1 Identify International System of Units (SI) and related unit symbols
  • 1.2 Apply common formulae used to measure characteristics of food
  • 1.3 Perform calculations involving fractions and ratios
2. Apply linear algebra to analyse workplace information
  • 2.1 Perform linear algebraic calculations to determine unknown values
  • 2.2 Apply principles of transposing values to solve workplace problems
3. Use graphs to analyse workplace information and analyse process control
  • 3.1 Identify data analysis and presentation requirements
  • 3.2 Generate graphs to analyse and display workplace information
  • 3.3 Construct a statistical process control (SPC) chart to measure attributes and variables
